My proposal

My proposal


My magazine is to follow the genre of classic rock/punk with a twist. I plan on throwing a vintage steam-punk feel into the mix to make this stand out from the crowd.
The codes and conventions of this is to use dark blacks and greys with contrasting brighter colours, I will also be taking most of my colours from darker reds, and brighter golden bronzes.

Since rock magazines like this tend to follow career more than personal life, I would have to say that my magazine will also try to focus on a bands career over their personal life.

The magazine should have a slight border, almost chaotic with an apocalyptic theme, either that or a cardboard box type thing that has been cut open. These borders will represent the dangerous and rugged style of the magazine.

My primary audience is Gothic teenagers or both genders. A profile on them has been done on them showing how they're colour scheme is mostly black with other colours dotted about. my secondary audience is the steampunk community, a small group but still enough to form a community.

The artists to feature need to be relatively unknown and UN-followed for me to turn their image towards steampunk. My magazine intends to be one of the first steampunk based music magazines to ride the wave of steampunk that is appearing now amongst the gothic and geek community.
